Verdict
GREAT DEMEANOR has much the best form of those with experience. He gets first-time headgear after his latest sixth at Lingfield but was beaten only a length over course and distance before that and can open his account if running up to the same level. Shenval and Mastered may improve but need to if they're to figure and bigger threats could come from the newcomers Holy Warrior and Continental Divide. Both are related to winners and strong support for either may prove significant.
